A Glimpse Inside The Mind Of Charles Swan III (2013)

A Glimpse Inside The Mind Of Charles Swan III Synopsis

Set in a stylized Los Angeles, A Glimpse Inside the Mind of Charles Swan III ’ is a playful comedy of lost love, friendship, revenge fantasies, and Brandy Alexanders. Charles (Charlie Sheen) is a successful graphic designer whose fame, money and charm have provided him with a seemingly perfect life. When his true love, a perplexing beauty named Ivana, suddenly breaks off their relationship, Charles’ life falls apart and he swirls into a downward spiral of doubt, confusion and reflection. With the support of his loyal intimates— Kirby (Jason Schwartzman), Saul (Bill Murray), and his sister, Izzy (Patricia Arquette) -- he begins the hard road of self-evaluation to come to terms with a life without Ivana. The film begs the question: Is it possible to love and hate someone at the same time?

Charles Swan III, the character that Charlie Sheen plays in his latest comedy, is really just a riff on Sheen himself, right? I mean, he’s playing a Hollywood-based graphic designer who’s life falls apart after the love of his life leaves him. But it’s all just a glorified excuse for Sheen to keep the meta, national joke at this own expense going, isn’t it?

Are we ready for the return of Charlie Sheen? Will we ever been? Ever since the Two and a Half Men star exploded early last year he's been pretty easy to avoid, and for those of us who got quickly sick of "tiger blood" and everything else, it was a relief. But early next year Sheen is making a comeback that will be difficult to ignore

It's hard to even decide what the most intriguing thing is about A Glimpse Inside The Mind Of Charles Swan III. We first learned of it as a directorial effort from Roman Coppola, brother of Sofia and son of Francis Ford, who made his first feature CQ over a decade ago. It got even more fascinating when Coppola cast the self-destructive Charlie Sheen as the titular Charles

A Glimpse Inside the Mind of Charles Swan III, the new film from director Roman Coppola, tells the story of a graphic designer - played by Charlie Sheen - who is living the high life until his longtime girlfriend, Ivana (Katheryn Winnick), decides to dump him. From there, the character's life begins to completely fall apart and he is forced to fight to put everything back together.

Of course, Charlie Swan probably won't be known primarily for Murray's involvement--- its first big casting move was bringing in Charlie Sheen to play the lead role, a graphic designer whose life suddenly spins out of control. The cast also includes Aubrey Plaza, Jason Schwartzman-- Coppola's cousin, don't you know
